Joshua; Chapter 11 Verse 19-20
Northern Kings Defeated
19 Except for the Hivites living in Gibeon, not one city made a treaty of peace with the Israelites, who took them all in battle. 20 For it was the Lord himself who hardened their hearts to wage war against Israel, so that he might destroy them totally, exterminating them without mercy, as the Lord had commanded Moses
9 1اس پورے ملک میں صرف ایک شہر نے اِسرائیل سے امن کا معاہدہ کیا۔ جو جبعون کا حوّی شہر تھا۔ دوسرے تمام شہروں کو جنگ میں شکست ہوئی۔ 20 خدا وند چاہتا تھا کہ وہ لوگ یہ سوچیں کہ وہ طاقتور ہیں تب وہ اسرائیل کے خلاف لڑیں تا کہ وہ انہیں بغیر رحم کے تباہ کر سکیں وہ انہیں اس طرح تباہ کر سکیں جس طرح خدا وند نے موسیٰ کو کر نے کا حکم دیا تھا۔
My point of view about above verses
God told Joshua be strong and courageous – be careful to obey my laws and decrees Moses gave you- don’t turn right or left so that you may be successful wherever you go –
All king and their armories along with large number of horses and chariots gathered to fight against Israelites – the Lord told Joshua don’t be afraid of them as I will hand all of them to you, you are restrict their horses and burn their chariots
God Lord gave them into the hand of Israel – they defeated them and pursued them until no survivors left
God hardened their hearts to wage war against Israeli so that He can destroy them totally without mercy
God wants us to do as what He wants - then there is victory for us - if God is with us ; no one can defeat us - It is God who can give kingdoms and it is Him who can take back only - as all kingdoms of the world belongs to Him- only we need to follow Him as He knows what is best for us - It is God who gave people into hands of other people - so be still and wait for His will to be fulfilled in our lives
May God give us wisdom to understand His Word and apply it in our lives
